President Donald Trump will send 300 California National Guard soldiers to Portland despite a judge’s order that the Trump administration not deploy members to Oregon, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA).
Newsom claimed on Sunday that Trump chose to go around a federal judge’s Saturday decision that the military not be sent to Portland to quell violent left-wing rioters outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility downtown and implored the public to fight “authoritarian” Trump.
